Pass the "Hawaii Judge Act" One and Done. I'm told destruction of evidence is a felony. Plenty of evidence for probable cause found already. Perhaps this judge just committed a felony? Perhaps even an enhanced sentence felony under the obstruction rules applied to the J6'ers "18 U.S. Code § 1512 - Tampering with a witness, victim, or an informant"?
Congress needs to exercise more house-cleaning power. If every federal judge wants to be Hawaii judge, we may as well have 1000 unelected presidents.

The radical left judiciary continues to sabotage the Trump Administration’s efforts to drain the swamp.
CNN reported on Saturday that a federal judge halted Elon Musk’s government efficiency team from accessing a critical Treasury Department. US District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer, who Barack Obama appointed, cited a risk of “irreparable harm.”
The order temporarily stops access to a sensitive payment system that distributes Americans’ tax returns, Social Security benefits, disability payments, and federal employees’ salaries.
Moreover, Engelmeyer ordered the destruction of any downloaded information from the payment system by anyone given access to it since January 20, the date Trump was inaugurated.
Engelmeyer claimed in his ruling that “the risk that the new policy presents of the disclosure of sensitive and confidential information and the heightened risk that the systems in question will be more vulnerable than before to hacking.”
CNN reports a hearing on the case is scheduled for February 14.
Elon Musk exploded after hearing the so-called judge’s decision.
“This ruling is absolutely insane!” he wrote. “How on Earth are we supposed to stop fraud and waste of taxpayer money without looking at how money is spent?”
“That’s literally impossible!” Musk added. “Something super shady is going to protect scammers.”

The ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by Trump-hating New York Attorney General Letitia James and 18 Democrat state attorneys general infuritated over Trumps efforts to downsize government.
James and her fellow cronies claim that DOGE was unlawfully granted access to the Treasury system previously limited to “specific government employees.”
Engelmeyer’s order also goes further than the ruling issued by a Clinton judge named Colleen Kollar-Kotelly on Thursday, which periodically stopped DOGE from obtaining access to ‘sensitive‘ Treasury Department payment records.
Her ruling came after multiple government employee unions sued the Treasury Department over who could access the material.
Today’s ruling also comes after another order temporarily stopping the Trump administration’s efforts to blow up the Deep State’s favorite money pit, USAID.
Judge Carl Nichols, a Trump appointee, stopped a midnight deadline for USAID to be reduced to couple hundred workers. He entered what was described as a “very limited” temporary restraining order.
Unfortunately, this is just the beginning of the lawfare against Trump.
He and Congress cannot wait to reshape the judiciary and perhaps impeach these lawless Democrats masquerading as judges.
